Chapter 1459 The elegant and easy-going driver AEEIS
At the beginning, everything was fine.
The car does have a self-driving option, but it can only be activated after driving the car to a public road.
Zhang Yan didn't pay much attention, and drove to the public road as normal, and then accepted a ride-hailing job online.
Then, on the way to pick up the passengers, she turned on the autopilot, put her right foot on the brake, and put her hands, palms up, hanging naturally on her knees, less than two centimeters away from the steering wheel, ready to take over the vehicle at any time.
After all, the official only said that this is L2 level autonomous driving. No one can guarantee whether this thing is reliable or not.
Although this is a game, not reality. If the car really crashes, it will only cost the game currency to repair it. If it kills someone, it will just replace the sister. However, in the long process of playing the game, Zhang Yan has formed the habit of zero accidents.
Even when driving a racing car, you try your best to avoid all kinds of small bumps and bumps, but you crash on a city road? That's definitely not possible. You can't let your reputation be ruined by this car!
After hitting the road, things were relatively normal.
This car drove smoothly according to the navigation route. It stopped when it saw a red light. It also paid attention to detecting pedestrians when turning right, overtaking, changing lanes and other behaviors. It was also very flexible, smart and safe.
.
Not only that, but the vehicle also does a better job of navigating than other vehicles in the game.
On the premise of retaining the instrument panel, K1 is equipped with a relatively large on-board display screen, which is divided into two screens. The left half is the vehicle's detection of road conditions, including vehicles ahead, pedestrians on the roadside, etc.
will be displayed in real time; the right half is the current navigation route, which is very clearly planned.
Every time the vehicle turns, the steering wheel of the safe and civilized driving simulator will also turn. Zhang Yan does not need to do anything. She only needs to stare at the screen and pay attention to the surrounding car conditions.
This kind of driving experience makes Zhang Yan feel quite magical.
Of course, it may also be because there are relatively few pedestrians and vehicles on this section of the road and the traffic conditions are not that complicated, so it went relatively smoothly.
The first order was completed quickly and the customer was successfully delivered to the destination.
"Isn't this self-driving a bit powerful? In reality, this level of self-driving has probably not been achieved yet, right? After driving for such a long time, no manual intervention is required even once?"
In fact, Zhang Yan was ready to take over at any time, but the actual autonomous driving experience of this car was a bit beyond her imagination.
"No wonder everyone says that the autonomous driving of this car is a bit outrageous. But this is not its limit. We can also find places with more complex road conditions."
"Well... let's go and have a look near the Tenda Experience Store in the game!"
There are several places in the game that have a particularly large flow of people and traffic, and one of them is near the Tenda Experience Store. Because there are two large shopping malls here, a subway entrance, a GOG competition venue and the largest Tenda Experience Store in the country.
.
In the game, although a miniature version of Jingzhou City is made, key landmarks like this must be perfectly displayed.
Zhang Yan didn't take the order this time, because taking the order might not necessarily lead to the right place, so she made a trip at her own expense. Anyway, this car uses electricity, and the electricity bill in the game is very cheap.
Soon, Zhang Yan drove K1, oh no, K1 drove herself and Zhang Yan, and followed the navigation to the vicinity of the destination.
The road conditions here are indeed complicated, especially when passing through several intersections. Pedestrians often walk randomly on both sides of the road. There is even a pedestrian playing with his mobile phone while walking forward, approaching a moving vehicle.
Of course, he didn't seek death and use a ghost probe, but turned back in time, but K1 still detected him in time, and while giving the driver an early warning, he quickly reduced the speed to avoid accidents.
Although the pedestrian did not actually run in front of the car, Zhang Yan was still so frightened that she broke into a cold sweat.
"This car is also very good at handling complex road conditions, even better than human drivers in some aspects? This is really outrageous!"
Zhang Yan finally understood why the barrage was talking about how awesome this car is.
Because it passed a very complicated road section completely on its own, and there were no accidents even when people and cars were mixed together. If it could pass, it would pass normally without crawling slowly; if it couldn't pass, it would stop and wait patiently;
If a pedestrian suddenly rushes out from the side, it can be detected in time and the vehicle speed can be reduced to avoid danger.
Of course, the car itself beeped several times to remind the driver to concentrate on complicated road conditions and to suggest taking over. But Zhang Yan did not take over and the car continued to drive normally.
When encountering some emergencies, such as ghost probes, the car's reaction speed is even faster than that of a human driver. After all, human drivers have visual blind spots, while cars have cameras and lidar, so they can see more clearly.
When pedestrians on the roadside are still in Zhang Yan's blind spot, the vehicle's display screen has already shown them and marked them in red to remind them to avoid them.
Of course, the car's autonomous driving is not particularly perfect. In Zhang Yan's opinion, there is still some gap compared with human drivers, especially experienced drivers.
For example, its speed is not too fast, and it certainly does not exceed the speed limit. However, sometimes it will slow down a little when the road conditions are unclear, so that it will not slow down like a tortoise, but it is still faster than an experienced driver.
Slower. In this way, the time to complete the same distance will be longer, but the advantage is that you will not accelerate or decelerate frequently.
You can't experience it in the game, but in reality, this will obviously bring a better riding experience and make it less likely to get motion sickness.
In addition, its compliance with traffic rules is a bit too robust. It goes without saying that it goes without saying when turning, giving way to other vehicles, and letting other vehicles go first. There are places where it is obvious that you can be blocked, but it does not do so, and it does not speed up when you are blocked.
Instead, you slow down and let the other party get stuck. This causes the time to pass through some congested road sections to become longer.
But it seems that we can’t blame it, because the “time-saving” behavior of many experienced drivers is itself a kind of uncivilized driving.
Don't let others cut into the traffic jam, but do it yourself. This can indeed make you go faster when you are stuck in a traffic jam, but the problem is that on the one hand, this will increase the probability of accidents, and on the other hand, it will also play the role of bad money driving out good money, making
City road traffic has become more chaotic.
If everyone stops blocking, then the traffic conditions on urban roads will definitely be greatly improved. However, if you don't block others, or if you give way when others block you, the final result may be that others swish to the road.
I went ahead, but you were stuck in the same place.
It's like waiting in line. If everyone else cuts in line, it's hard for you not to cut in line.
Is Zhang Yan anxious when others interrupt her? Of course she is.
I have to say that the cars in the game are quite smart, and all kinds of complicated road conditions are created, including those drivers who randomly jam. Obviously, this is to increase the difficulty for players on the road and maximize the authenticity.
Therefore, when encountering a traffic jam in the game, many players will accelerate forward when angry and refuse to give way, or even overturn it. Anyway, it is the other party's full responsibility.
In real life, I'm afraid of a car accident and don't want to repair the car, but in the game I can't control that much, so I can't let this happen!
But Zhang Yan did not do this because she found that the AEEIS of the vehicle system could actually comfort her!
"AEEIS decided to be polite. After all, he was in a hurry to get reincarnated."
"Each driver has the same number of stop-ups. Whoever finishes first will go first. Seeing that he is in such a hurry, he probably doesn't have a few left, so AEEIS decided to be polite."
"Although the turn should be courteous and go straight, he did not yield to AEEIS, but it doesn't matter. There will always be a side collision or a 25% offset collision when his turn turns."
Zhang Yan was very angry when she was cut off and was cut off from the road. But when AEEIS said this, she immediately stopped being angry and actually wanted to laugh!
This is a bit like when a driver is driving, he will inevitably have road rage and want to yell at the stupid driver, but if the co-pilot tactfully complains, the driver's anger will naturally subside quickly.
AEEIS is not the kind of angry curse, but an elegant yin and yang, and the effect is even better.
In addition, the car is actually driving autonomously, which gives people the feeling of AEEIS delivering stand-up comedy while driving, which Zhang Yan found particularly interesting.
"This AEEIS voice package is great! I think every car should be equipped with one in the future. It can effectively calm road rage."
"Well, the test is over. It's almost time to go back to work."
"I'd better drive it myself. I haven't driven a family car for a long time. I'd better leave the downtown area and go take orders to make money."
Zhang Yan lightly tapped the brakes, took control of the vehicle again, and prepared to drive out of the downtown area.
The logic of automatic driving is that lightly tapping the brakes or moving the direction is equivalent to taking over, but lightly tapping the accelerator does not count, but pressing the accelerator heavily does.
Although K1's autonomous driving can also cope with complex road conditions, after all, it pays too much attention to safety and drives slowly. It is too slow to make money by driving an online car-hailing service in this place. It is better to take orders in places with better road conditions.
The longer you run, the faster you make money.
Moreover, after driving autonomous driving for such a long time, Zhang Yan has not yet had time to test the performance of this car.
Push the accelerator and let's go!
Zhang Yan is now a truly experienced driver. Although she will not use the track equipment to drive on city roads, she is still very good at the routine operations of an experienced driver, such as stopping.
AEEIS was still navigating normally at first, but when it was turned on, Zhang Yan suddenly realized something was wrong.
"Please keep the distance between cars. You still have one foot of the accelerator to send you and the car in front away together."
"Now that you are only one step away from a full-fledged rear-end collision, the car in front of you suddenly brakes. AEEIS believes that you should have a clear estimate of the driving level of human drivers and lower the standards appropriately."
